Murder of Arsène Mompoint The sponsors would be important members of organized crime
Influential members of the mafia and organized crime in Montreal are said to be the sponsors of the murder of gang leader Arsène Mompoint, shot dead in broad daylight, while he was sitting at a table with several people, in a cannabis store in Kanesatake, on 1 July 1, 2021.
These individuals are Vito Salvaggio, Pietro D'Adamo and Davide Barberio, considered by the police as important players in the mafia, as well as Jean-Philippe Célestin, Emmanuel Zéphir and Dany Sprinces Cadet, from the gangs. A seventh individual, Gregory Woolley, was also targeted by the investigation, but he was murdered last November. In December, the residences of these seven individuals were searched.
